Structural and functional bases for broad-spectrum neutralization of avian and human influenza A viruses

Nature Structural &Molecular Biology, 2009
Influenza virus remains a serious health threat, owing to its ability to evade immune surveillance through rapid genetic drift and reassortment. Here we used a human non-immune antibody phage-display library and the H5 hemagglutinin ectodomain to select ...
